Develop a Migration Strategy From a Legacy Enterprise IT Infrastructure to an SOA-Based Enterprise Architecture
Overview Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) are terms that have been around for a few years, since they were introduced by the research firm, the Gartner Group. However, the actual level of details sufficient for applying SOA approach has emerged just recently. So, what exactly is the Service Oriented Architecture? "SOA is a component model that inter-relates the different functional units of an application, called services, through well-defined interfaces and contracts between these services". Defined as such, SOA is a collection of patterns for building an enterprise-level integration layer between applications while abstracting those applications as services. SOA approach advocates the use of open standards, while not ruling out proprietary technologies where they are appropriate, when integrating applications.
